I like the idea of having a clear strategy per hole. It helps to visualize your shots ahead! What do you all think about selecting clubs for different weather conditions?
Thatâs a great point! Wind can really impact distance. I often go one club up or down based on the wind.

Mental game plays such a big role too. Stay calm and focused, especially after a bad shot. It can be difficult, but it makes a huge difference in scores.
Totally! I find that taking deep breaths helps me refocus after I mess up a hole.
Shot placement is everything! Avoiding hazards by deliberately laying up can result in way better scores than trying to reach the green every time.
For sure! Sometimes a chip or pitch from a safer distance can lead to an easier putt. Golf is more than just hitting far; strategy wins!
Does anyone use a note or card with their own strategies for each hole? I think it could be a fun way to keep track of what works and what doesnât.
I love that idea! It would help me remember my plan if I write it down, especially during tournaments!
Every time I think Iâve mastered a course, I lose my focus on a hole and it ruins my game! Itâs a real test of mental toughness.
True! And itâs harder than it sounds. Staying in the moment can be tough with so many distractions!
Remember, golf is a game! If you hit a bad shot, laugh it off and keep going. It helps relieve pressure and keeps the game enjoyable!
Definitely! I chuckle at my blunders. After all, who doesnât have a duffed shot every now and then?
In the end, strategy and mental strength combined can truly lead to breaking 100. Focus on what you can control out there!
To break 100, focusing on your short game is crucial! Try practicing your putting with a drill where you hit from different distances and angles. This builds consistency.
Absolutely! And donât forget chipping. Set up a target area and practice chipping from various lies. It really helps with accuracy.
Great tip on chipping! I always find that if I practice my basic swings regularly, Iâll feel more confident when on the course. Any specific drills you recommend for driving?
I suggest the â1-2-3 drillâ! It involves making three separate swings: one slow, one medium, and one fast. It helps with rhythm and timing!
That 1-2-3 drill sounds fantastic! I also found that hitting balls at the driving range while focusing on your follow-through can significantly improve your drives. Has anyone else tried this?
Yes! I swear by that! Also, just keep your head down. It sounds simple but makes a big difference!
For putting, I practice by placing two balls a foot apart and trying to sink them in one stroke. This helps sharpen my aim and distance control. Anyone else have unique drills?
